Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Nicasio, CA.

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Nicasio that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
